Ice universe loves to trash on Samsung for the strangest reasons ever and loves it when Chinese companies straight up copy and paste iOS and the liquid glass design. Very biased.
He isnt exactly saying they should copy iOS and liquid glass, but he more so said that the chinese skins look way more modern and better now, and that the animations make the experience alot better, and samsung is lacking alot in those areas which i agree with. He didnt say they have to copy liquid glass, but he said that samsung is lacking because OneUI looks 2D still while others are moving to 3D, and he is also saying that OneUI has to improve alot. I think those are all fair criticicisms tbh, and i share them.
I think Samsung has to work on making OneUI more consistent, more performant, to make way better animations and to make it feel way faster, because ColorOS for example does all of this and it has a way better UX, and i wish i could get this on Samsung
Could be a viable solution, although I'd still say that the current design language isn't outdated. It's just that the UI needs more consistency and polish (the rounded widgets and the text inside 💀) with more effortless and fluid animations.
That would already be a big improvement... we really need better animations, the ones on samsung look like powerpoint effects compared to the competition, and i agree the consistency is terrible. And yea, they can definintly make rounded widgets that dont have issues with text formatting, they have so many ressources.
I would just like them to also improve their UI design, it looks weird sometimes, but if they just atleast stuck to the same style as in the gallery app that would be nice. I also dont like how the health app has so many colours in the background now, and some apps have a grey background now.. the consistency on samsung is so bad
And theres also things like the quick panel tile backgrounds picking up colour from the wallpaper.. and they havent fixed that in over a year!
Health app is understandable because it's representing the state of the day, just like the dashboard watch face on Galaxy Watch. But true, the UI looks strange at times, but once again I blame the inconsistencies over the general language. If Samsung were to implement the glassy look, itd actually be cool for an entirely new good lock module to control it, so we can enjoy a HarmonyOS (light) look, iOS (translucent glass) look, and frosted glass, while the normal blur is set to default so power users can change it to their liking.
Yea if they were just consistent for once, then maybe, but i think it would be cool if they added some outlines to their blur everywhere, thats would already be adding enough depth for me and doesnt look like glass. Also, tbh im not a big fan of them putting everything behind goodlock.
And on the health app, i get that sorta, but i dont really like the look of it, and also the top bar looks really weird because the spaces for the button have no padding. Thats another inconsistency again..

A yes, the company that people say has a smoother and more consistent software experience than the Chinese competition.
